I believe that the headers do indeed tell the story as you suspect. Here is the relevant header section from your email to this list: >List-Subscribe: > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >List-Digest: > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >List-Unsubscribe: > <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> As can see, it is a one for one match to the choices offered with arrow icon. So if you have a list whose mail does not show the icon, perhaps you should ask them about reformatting their headers to include such info. Hope this helps! -- Tim Lapin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
